On Monday, my boyfriend and I jetted off to the South of France for a small adventure. We're currently at our first stop, but will be continuing our journey further along to the sunny city of Cannes in the next few days. However, Marseille has brought beauty and bliss as we're exploring the city's touristic sites and exhausted its many coffee shops!
Upon leaving our bags at the hotel room on the first day, we hopped on the Metro from our stop, La Timone to Vieux Port, the escalator climbed to the city floor and we sprung upon this beautiful view!
We walked around the port and landed ourselves in Le Panier district. I would recommend anyone to go here as it is bustling full of unique shops and squares of independent restaurants.
At the end of the port we found ourselves at Cathedral de la Major. The architecture in this cathedral was so beautiful, and a definite place to go to when exploring Marseille.
After walking around this beautiful and historical cathedral, we then left to walk back around the port and book a boat trip to Les Calanques, something I will talk about on my next blog post!
However, this insight to Marseille on the first day excited me of what was to come in the following couple of days we were here.
I will write to keep you updated on our adventure in the south of France!
